The World

All week long we’re talking with some of our favorite guests from the past year about the year that was. Today we’re having a conversation about the teachable moments of 2010. What lessons can we take away from the major world events of the past year?

We speak with Mark Oglesby, a high school government and civics teacher who was on the show earlier this year. Mark teaches at Howell High School in Howell, Mich.
